This document welcomes attendees to the EvoStar conference in Baeza and lists many of the people who encouraged and helped organize the conference, though more help was needed hauling oil boxes. It then lists some of the topics to be covered at the conference, including distributed asynchronous parallel conferencing using evolutionary algorithms, the travelling tapas crawling problem, and the constrained EvoCoin packing problem. The document encourages attendees to fill out surveys, invites them to a meeting to form an EvoStar society, and thanks them for attending while wishing them to enjoy the conference.
